My desktop becomes very quiet once windows7 is loaded.. but the fan, maybe cpu fan runs continuously in fedora 13. though it's not quite noisy, I thought I didn't install the correct drivers for the Asus h55 mb. the mb cd has a directory "isolinux", which contains a boot.cat, isolinux.bin, isolinux.cfg along with two subdirectories, data & src. but isolinux.bin is not executable.. how can I install the drivers in fedora?

I thought there must be some problem with my OS and I formatted fedora and installed Ubuntu 9 I faced the same problem there Again I installed back fedora , problem not solved Then I thought there must be some problem with my internet connection and I went to my friends house and tried linksys (I have netgear) same problem..I never had this problem when i had windows vistaThis is what my problem is "I AM ABLE TO ACCESS INTERNET FOR FEW MINS THEN CONNECTION FAILED " then i had to wait for few min then everything is fine!!!, then again same thing

I did a fresh install of F14, and I am using adobe 64bit flash plugin,on "some" websites such as yahoo movie trailers, flash videos are played with an audio which comes with lots of annoying noise. the video itself is played smoothly without any problem but the sound is terrible to my astonishment, this problem shows up only on a number of web sites, and on others such as ..... the sound is clear.

When I start skype it works for 5 secs then the sound becomes corrupt and make a large crackling noise. I have reinstalled alsa and pulse atleast 10 times removed any trace of config files and still the same result. It first broke when I turned off tsched in hopes that my microphone will no longer broadcast a buzzing sound. This setting broke everything and even after I reverted it the symptoms remained the same. It's 3rd time I reinstall fedora because of pulseaudio. Until the problem can be fixed I have reverted back to ALSA.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI've installed Ubuntu 10.10 64 bit (I am an experienced Linux user here), installed a few extras like docky, zeitgeist, added my Ubuntu one account (I don't synchronise much at all, about 100kb max), my twitter account using Gwibber, but nothing much else. I also mount a few smbfs shares in my fstab file at bootup. About the only other program that uses the net that I can think of is running would be rabbitvcs, but I can't imagine that will keep downloading if I am not doing anything.I noticed that when opening system monitor, it is continuously downloading 8.6kb/sec, even if I am doing absolutely nothing. It gets to the point that after an hour or so of use, 100mb or more has downloaded, but what for??
I tried a Googling a few commands to figure out what is eating up network download bandwidth, such as "netstat -p" and "lsof | grep tcp", to try to figure out what is downloading so much at a constant rate, but I can't seem to find the process.I have tried disabling stuff one after the other:
I disconnected my Ubuntu one account
I removed my Twitter account from gwibber
I terminated zeitgeist-daemon
I terminated all desktop-couch related processes
I disconnected all my smbfs drives
But it is still downloading 8.6kb/sec, steadily. This is wasting a lot of bandwidth during the day, and I am not sure what is causing it.
p.s. it is only doing downloading, never uploading.
My server is currently copying a large amount of date. I periodically check how much has already been copied by using the "ls" command in the destination folder. Is there a way so that ls kind of self updates itself? Like in a log or so? Or like when using cp -v?

I have an EeePC 701 4G running Ubuntu Netbook (10.04). I installed the system on its 4GB SSD for speed reasons - fast SD cards are expensive. I keep all user data on a fairly slow SD card. Problem is, after a few updates, I have less and less free space on the SSD. Since updating replaces old packages with newer ones, shouldn't the size remain more or less the same? I'm almost out of space and will probably have to stop updating the system soon... and yes, I do perform apt-get clean after every update. It helps, but the size is still steadily creeping upwards.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm wondering if anyone is having a similar issue to what I'm experiencing. openSuSE 11.2 was very fast on my system. Since installing openSuSE 11.3, I've been experiencing many short term hangs where I'll lose control of the mouse for a few seconds (usually about 2-5) and the system will do nothing. I don't have unusual load during these time periods and I don't really see any spikes during these periods. If I leave a cpu monitor active, I can see a very very light spike one core0 when it happens, but the mouse and keyboard (and seemingly the whole desktop) hang during this spike so I can't see what's causing it, if that's really the culprit.
I am almost suspecting that I'm experiencing an issue with interrupts... since it seems that everything is hanging for a few seconds, then coming back to life. It does seem to happen more often when I'm resizing or minimizing windows... but that's about all I can say as it also seems pretty random.Here's some basic info on my hardware:ASUS M3A78 Pro motherboardAMD Phenom(tm) 9950 Quad-Core ProcessorGeForce GTX 260G15 Keyboard and MX revolution mouse (just in case USB interrupts turn out to be the issue)So, is anyone else experiencing a similar issue? Maybe we can narrow down what we have in common. Oh, I'm running x86_64.
I have a new computer with two 500 gb hard drives which I use in raid 0. I tried to install Ubuntu 9.10 off the live cd but it was unable to partition the raid and kept failing. I was then told top use the alternate cd. I use that and my raid is detected, partitioned, and the system is installed. However now I cannot install a boot loader as I get continuous errors. Right now I am left with no ideas with what to do. I have Ubuntu installed to my hard drives just no way of accessing it.

I've been looking for how to set this up in bash with no luck so far. I can change what file the history log is written to, and how much history is saved. But it only writes the saved part when bash exits. Instead, I'd like to have bash write that file continuously as each command is entered (and maybe also do an fsync(2) to flush it to disk). That way I can see the command I crashed the box with Anyone know the magical incantation for that?
But there appears to be nothing that I can find there, in the man page, or other searches, that suggest it even can do continuous.
I built up a system using opensuse 11.1

I recently had my laptop which ran windows xp, wiped and ubuntu installed in its place. I was told of all the grand benefits of ubuntu so I thought yeesss. Everything was running beautifully, everything was heavenly, until i encountered "a flash website ". This was strange because ..... worked fine.
Anyway ever since I encountered that site Ubuntu crashes on startup. I log in then crash. Its strange because sometimes it takes a while to crash e.g. when trying to open any application, or sometimes its instant.
1. How i diagnose this problem so it can be fixed, remember it may have to be before the log in.
2. Is there someway I can do a system restore to its original settings or something?
After a terrible problem I had with x-server, I decided to opt for a clean install. So, naturally I poped in the 10.10 LiveCD (from Canonical), deleted the Ubuntu Partiton (ext4) and swap, and entered the installer. I have a 40gb Vista partition, 90gb media partition, and 20gb unallocated free space. Once I get to allocate drive space in the installation, I get three options - Install alongside other operating systems, erase and use the entire disk, or specify partitions manually. If I click install alongside other operation systems, it tries to take space away from my media partition to install ubuntu. I'm not too advanced with Ubuntu, so I don't think I'm going to specify my own. I don't know how much to give swap etc, etc, etc.What ever happened to use the largest amount of continuous free space? I have 20gb free I would love ubuntu to use.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have Kubuntu 10.10 64-bit, which was running fine until I did a bunch of apt-get software installs to permit me to compile YaWP weather plasmoid. In the process I am now at KDE 4.6.2, and my system is now non-functional, not able to start KDE desktop.
When KDE starts I get continuous krunner segfaults, krunner is taking 100% of the CPU, the desktop is there but the system is unusable. /var/log/messages is filled with the krunner segfaults, each line further indicating "error 4 in libkio.so.5.6.0". I tried reinstalling kubuntu-desktop, problem remains.
I expect I have created some software incompatibility with my installs, but I do not know how to diagnose/resolve.
My setup:
Acer Extensa 5635ZG
openSUSE 11.3
KDE 4.6.1 (from KDE:/Release:/46)
Nvidia G105M (with 260.19.44 driver)
After the upgrade to KDE 4.6.1 I can hear that the fan in the laptop is working harder, and hence is noisier. Before I had KDE 4.5.x (from KDE:/Release:/45).
With top I can't find anything that takes up more CPU than before.
At the moment I use Compiz instead of kwin. Kwin was a little choppy for me. (Same fan noise though.)
My setup:
HP XW8200
2x 3600MHz Xeon CPUs
4GB RAM
Quadro FX3800 PCIe graphics
Dual boot Ubuntu 10.10 32bit (primary use) and XP (gaming use only)
The issue I have is that the CPUs seem to run at 100% constantly in Ubuntu meaning that the CPU fans are constantly at high. This makes the machine sound like a wind tunnel!
It is nice and quiet in XP.
I installed GKrellM monitor which is what is telling me about the 100% CPU useage.
Would using the 64bit Ubuntu make any difference? (dont really want to reinstall tbh)
I have an install of Mint 9, and the fan runs a lot less then it did in Vista, but it still is way to loud because it's not very warm at all. I was wondering if there is a tool for Ubuntu/Mint that you could adjust this issue. It would be nice if it was a gui tool, but anything will do, because it's really bugging me.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a multiboot system with Windows Seven and Debian Squeeze installed.
When i run Windows, the fans in my PC work silently, but when i run Debian they making extremely terrible noise (looks like they working at full capacity).
I have 4 fans in my chasis, 1 CPU, 1 GPU and 1 PSU, 7 total.
Since about a few weeks, I have a problem with the sound on my Ubuntu Jaunty 64-bit. From any application it would simply provide noise instead of the real sound. The motherboard is working fine and providing sound under Vista. Initially, I then managed to change the settings in System-> Sound from Auto to one of the options, which provided for a decent test result. Now this is not working anymore either ... so I only get noise out of my speakers.
View 1 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to keep the hard drive off most of the time, so that the laptop runs silently? (The fan has been taken care of already. Are there any other noise sources?)
I have no practical knowledge about this, but in theory it should be possible to cache frequently used files in RAM and to store disk writes on a flash drive...? UnionFS?
